Alongside offering an award-winning app for kids, Sago Mini also makes a range of physical toys that help to take learning beyond the screen—including bedding and pillow toys.
At the 2018 North American International Toy Fair, Sago Mini introduced a fresh new take on the kitchen playset with the Kitchen Pillow Playset. While most plastic kitchen playsets consume a considerable amount of space, this pillow toy can be rolled out on a couch or another surface to mimic an oven and a cooktop. The set includes removable pieces of food and a frying pan for play, as well as pockets for storage.
When playtime is over, the toy can be neatly folded up once again to form a compact throw pillow.
